FOOD-DAY, TUESDAY!

Every Tuesday I want to highlight local food, being where to find the best local delicacy or a feature on a local restaurant.

Today I pose a question.... Where do you go to get the best hamburger in Midland?

For me, I go to Bob's Better Burger at 3417 Thomason Ave. to get a small jalapeno cheeseburger.

Bob's opened 50+ years ago with the same sign that stands today. A simple drive-in, where you get out of your car to order, pick up your food after hearing your number, and take it back to your car to eat. The recipes have changed very little with everything still being made to order. The hamburgers are simple with toasted buns, juicy meat, simple vegetables, and my personal favorite, very fine chopped jalapenos. The perfect partner for this delicious burger, the extra crispy fires or tater tots. Finish it off with a milkshake and I am one happy girl.

Let me know where to get your favorite burger, I might be persuaded.

Hello Midland!

The inaugural post. I am proud to call Midland my home. I grew up here, met my husband here, and have chosen Midland to raise my family. After searching the internet for a website or blog that featured Midland's events, activities, and people, I found nothing. I decided to start LivingMidland.com. The purpose, to highlight events, activities, local artists, businesses, and restaurants. I have many things planned and I am hoping that LivingMidland.com will become the go to place for everything Midland.

I encourage feedback and ideas at livingmidland@gmail.com.

Let's start this journey together!
